SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Lookout, Inc., the leader in mobile security, has announced a record fiscal year, which ended January 31, 2020. Growth in enterprise customers was driven by strong demand for its Phishing, App Defense, and Mobile Endpoint Security solutions, all powered by the Lookout Security cloud, the world’s largest mobile dataset.
“Our growth across all customer segments resulted in a remarkable year for our business,” said Jim Dolce, CEO at Lookout. “In addition to strong customer growth, our low churn rate demonstrates that enterprises see us as their trusted, long-term partner in security. We have made inroads into new regions and verticals, and expanded existing markets with our App Defense and Phishing solutions, which positions us well for the future.”
To meet the growing demand for mobile threat defense internationally, Lookout also significantly expanded its global footprint last year, moving its London office and Dutch European headquarters to larger locations, and opening new offices in Italy and Sweden. In APAC, Lookout added to its leadership ranks to further grow its presence in Australia and New Zealand, Japan and Singapore. In addition, Lookout App Defense saw strong momentum in the financial services industry globally.
Expanded strategic partnerships and new product integrations with industry leaders Google, Microsoft and VMware further demonstrated strong adoption of solutions for Post-Perimeter Security and the need to secure enterprises from the growing threats inherent in a mobile-first workforce. Last November, Lookout announced a strategic integration with Microsoft, to secure BYOD devices for Microsoft Office 365 users.
